Rohtas (Bihar), Nov 19 (ANI): Shattering the dreams of an aspiring IITian, the Bihar School Education Board (BSEB) declared a first division student as failed. The BSEB Class 10th student Dhananjay Kumar applied for scrutiny, but his marks did not improve. He later filed an RTI application through which he got a photocopy of his Hindi answer-sheet on November 1 showing his marks as 79. Speaking about the false marking, Dhananjay wanted to become an IITian but his dreams are shattered now. Disheartened by the incident, he even wanted to commit suicide but his family helped him. Giving details, Dhananjay's brother said as per RTI, his brother scored 84.42 percent, 421 marks out of 500. Earlier, they gave him 2 out of 100 in Hindi instead of 79, reducing his total marks to 344 and declaring him failed. His brother added that their family had been running to authorities since the past six months and Dhananjay is not able to study properly.
